    Best Purchases You've Ever Made

    I was debating one of the super wide screen monitors but then I realized one use case. I do a LOT of Zoom/Teams meetings. The optimal position for my camera is right at eye height. Which also puts it dead in the center of the monitor height. With an ultra wide that would mean I'd need the...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    If you want non-MS cloud storage I am pretty sure with Linux there are way to leverage Google Drive, and I THINK you can also use Proton Drive (for a slightly more privacy angled experience)

    You know you're getting old when.....

    No Mall Santa... I couldn't even grow a goatee until I was in my late 20's. Late 30's before I could get everything to connect into a decent beard.... But I've caught up.

    It has made me realize why my grandfather and uncle both kept one of these next to the front door.....

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    As someone who has a bird feeder in his front yard, I go to sleep every night hoping there is, in fact, a squirrel hell.

    You know you're getting old when.....

    Almost there myself, brother.... Tiniest bit of my natural brown still left. The top (i.e. hair) is pretty solid silver now already, the beard is lagging. End of the soup catcher is just past my nipples, which according to the chart makes me "captainly" and not yet "wizardly". Gearing up for...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I know, I've done this dance before unfortunately. But at the same time there's such an exodus going on that I am struggling to see how I'd set the bar any higher in terms of bridge burning. It will probably end up being a quiet event, where I just meet my boss (who I do actually like) at...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    So I officially hit the burnout wall with my current gig today. Nonsense has piled up to the point that ever little additional ask is making me go borderline "ragequit" levels of angry. This is apparently pretty wide spread right now amongst the people in my role and especially the 4+ year...

    Stargate SG-1

    At this point I honestly don't think anything will come of any attempts. As you said, the people in the positions of power to make/control these decisions aren't people anybody who cares about the IP can affect leverage on. I do find it interesting/entertaining that this whole drama has...

    Stargate SG-1

    TIL that apparently the ficticious character Dr Daniel Jackson has the same fictitious birth day and month as I do. Also apparently a lot of hardcore fans are still super salty over the amazon rug pull.....
